The National Archives, or your State archives may have a copy. I tried to obtain a copy of my fathers military records for many years and it was only through the National Archives that I now have a copy

The National Archives should have the information you desire. Depending on where you live, there may be a branch near you. I know there is one in Kansas City, Missouri.
